Silver, decorative dish with a scene of a knights court. 19th century.

Silver, decorative dish with a scene of a feudal court. Allegory of wise government. The dish bears in an oval a composition of court or patronage, where a feudal knight is represented in the center with a patronizing gesture. His figure is distinguished by scale, sounds like an unshakable support and strength against the backdrop of the interiors of the castle and genre details: warriors interpreting laws, an indignant crowd of petitioners and armed servants who appeared at the door. Not without Divine intervention: we see clouds in the interior. Decorative juiciness is given by voluminous garlands of flowers and fruits along the gilded fields of the dish. Europe 19th century. French import hallmark of silver: flea in a rectangle. Weight 522 gr. Dimensions: 36x29 cm.
